Meanwhile, at the Takahashi household...
Kenshin was sitting in his armchair, resting, when he picked up his phone and dialed a number.
"Hello?" - A deep voice answered on the other end of the line.
"Hey, Masahiro! What are you doing tomorrow?" - Kenshin spoke cheerfully upon hearing his friend's voice. The person he was speaking with was Masahiro Takeda, Toji's father and a Japanese baseball hero.
"Huh? Nothing, I'm retired, man. Why?" - Masahiro replied without much thought. Unlike Kenshin, who got a job after retiring, Masahiro decided to sit back, relax, and do whatever he wanted for the rest of his life. After all, he'd earned a ton of money during his career.
"You— Shun is playing in the final round of the Tokyo tournament tomorrow. What do you say we go watch together?" - Kenshin was a bit annoyed by how lazy his friend was but quickly got to the point.
